SAP CEO: Two-thirds of customers will be on SOA by 2010
SAP CEO: Two-thirds of customers will be on SOA by 2010: "'Enterprise SOA is available today from SAP,' Kagermann told an assembly of partners, press and IT and financial analysts. SAP customers range from Cisco, EDP and Colgate-Palmolive Company to Kagermann's 'favorite customer' -- a 15-seat installation at a winery.
'SAP is the only company that can provide [enterprise SOA],' he said. 'In 2006, we have shipped all the products to make this happen. Now, as we approach 2007, enterprise SOA is proven, it's risk-less, it's there.'
SAP has set its sights on bringing enterprise SOA to the midmarket in 2007, Kagermann said. Additionally, by 2010, the company aims to have two-thirds of its installed base using enterprise SOA.
While Kagermann went so far as to call SAP the best ERP solution ever, it's not all bluster"
